We study the complete O({alpha}{sub ew}) electroweak (EW) corrections to the production of three Z{sup 0} bosons in the framework of the standard model (SM) at the ILC. The leading-order and the EW next-to-leading-order corrected cross sections are presented, and their dependence on the colliding energy {radical}(s) and Higgs-boson mass m{sub H} is analyzed. We investigate also the LO and one-loop EW corrected distributions of the transverse momentum of the final Z{sup 0} boson, and the invariant mass of the Z{sup 0}Z{sup 0} pair. Our numerical results show that the EW one-loop correction generally suppresses the tree-level cross section, and the relative correction with m{sub H}=120 GeV(150 GeV) varies between -15.8%(-13.9%) and -7.5%(-6.2%) when {radical}(s) goes up from 350 GeV to 1 TeV.
